Skype has been done for most of today for me and this is immensely frustrastrating! How am I meant to talk to my chommies and organise my plans for the weekend!? Cha not cool bru!
Some people were tuning Microsoft for finally completing their take over with one user tweeting: Skype is down and so is their website. Microsoft must have completed its take over!
So you want to carry on talking to your girl or what ever. Here is how to fix the Skype error on your windows machine.
